Sweet and Sour Slaw
This vibrant, sweet and sour slaw is a fresh twist on a classic side. Made with crunchy cabbage, red and green bell peppers, and slivers of onion, it’s tossed in a tangy vinegar-based dressing—no mayo in sight. The balance of sweet and tart makes it the perfect companion to grilled meats, sandwiches, or any summer spread.
